We will be going on an expedition to the Netherlands this August.
We will hold a 2-day selection process for expedition members on the following dates and times. Basically, participation in the prior practice sessions is a condition for application, but adjustments can be made if you cannot participate due to team activities.
In such cases, please obtain permission from your team before participating. Tsukuba Junior participated in this tournament last year and finished in 3rd place. There are also participating teams from countries other than the Netherlands, making it a very good opportunity to gain international experience.
Please take this opportunity to challenge yourself!
